George Michael Begs His Way Out of Drug Conviction

George Michael was just busted for possession of drug while trolling for guys at a toilet. The Sun said George successfully begged his way out of a being charged with a crime, which would have prevented him from traveling to a charity event next month. George told police the charity would lose £2 million if he didn’t appear.

Riiiight.

A source told the Sun:

“He was very emotional. He kept saying, ‘Please, you’ll ruin my career’. His sob story worked – he escaped with a caution. He was even chauffeured home. He only got away with it because of his celebrity status.”

An ex-Scotland Yard official slammed the police’s handling of the ex-Wham man’s latest run in with the law. Says the former commander:

“He should have been prosecuted. He’s clearly out of control. What does he have to do to be dealt with properly?”

That’s what I’ve been asking. Amy Winehouse assaults people, is caught on video doing drugs, and all sorts of things, but she gets no jail time. Amy’s husband, not really a celebrity, goes directly to jail for assault. Whoever is running those police departments in the U.K. needs to be replaced. Breaking the law should be enough to be charged. Being a celebrity should never be a get-out-of-jail-free card.
